Photospectrometer for CURVES

Photospectrometer for CURVES

2011-04-03 by Lew Schwartz

Would a product like Colormunki help in the development of curves for custom
ink sets and papers?

Yes it does work.     You can easily export to excel for plotting etc.    It
may not be as straight forward as some of the more expensive options but it
does work.

well, you can easily export if you are operating on a Mac. Its harder on 
a PC as the ColorMunki doesn't export a .csv file on the PC.
It's a liitle tedious manually copying the measured values, but can be done.

You are correct.  I forgot to mention that in my last post.  I have both Mac
and PC and use the Mac for reading the plots with the color munki.

Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Photospectrometer for CURVES

there is another option for pc users who want to export to an excel file with relative ease.  upload your measured readings onto the x-rite website(just need to register).  you can then download the uploaded files and choose the file type as needed

Having a spectro is an almost necessary tool for serious profiling.  Flatbed
scanners can be used, but the spectros are a major advantage if you do much
of this.

I use the DataColor Spyder 3 Print.  I'm not sure what all the pros and cons
of the competitors are.  I do like the ability to print 21-step test strips,
with the gradients above the patches so I can see the ramp, and have them
fit as a single strip across a letter size piece of paper.  Even though the
DataColor unit does now have strip reading, I do it manually -- takes all of
one minute.

The unit I use has text output that I open in Excel for graphing -- very
nice and, again, rather necessary in my view.

Its a CxF file (an XML format) containing a lot of data not needed for 
this purpose.

If you use a recent version of Excel, there's a page on Keith Cooper's 
site - 
http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/bw_printing/bw_print_colormunki.html 
- that covers using the ColorMunki with QTR, and includes a link for an 
Excel file that is supposed to make it easier. I don't know whether it 
works, as I don't use Excel.

Thanks, Yan - I have an account on the x-rite website, but hcan't find

simplify things for me a bit.

No, still can't find it - probably photographers aren't supposed to need

Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Photospectrometer for CURVES

2011-04-05 by Lew Schwartz

Did a little research today. CxF (Color Exchange Format) is an open source
file format for the exchange of color information between CxF i/o compatible
apps. Although it uses tags internally like xml, it does not appear to be a
sub or superset of xml. Therefore, I wouldn't expect any Microsoft product
to be doing io in this format any time soon. The format was developed by
X-Rite (surprise, surprise). As far as I can tell, no other software
publishers have jumped on the CxF bandwagon, open source freebie or not.

www.colorexchangeformat.com is a web site containing all the open source
docs and white papers explaining the tech side of things.

I called X-Rite tech support to find out if their software bundle's Windows
version had been rev'd to output this data in another format, but no one
returned my call. I note that this is not a conversion issue; it's a matter
of outputting in a more standard format, txt would be preferable, but csv,
xls, xml would all work just fine imo. As a professional programmer, this
does not look like a big deal mod in their app. When a software publisher
limits itself to its own internally developed format it's an almost sure
sign that they are dreaming of dominating the software end of things in the
market place. I also note that my call to get this information I was
transferred to the 'Mac Group,' so I infer the original software was written
for MacOS and that Windows was an after thought. We'll be waiting a long
time for a Windows upgrade that gives output options on our desktops.

This is a deal breaker for me. I'll be going the Spyder 3 Print route in the
next few days.

I've been using the spreadsheet on Keith's site to import the cxf data

It is an xml file, using the CxF version 2 doctype. It even validates 
correctly to the doctype.
xml doesn't have sub or supersets.

So, of it's xml it should load into a blank Excel ss without the help of any macros or preexisting templates. I thought another poster reported having to use a template he got over the internet.

Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Photospectrometer for CURVES

2011-04-05 by Mike Finley

I don't know what support excel currently has - the last version of 
excel I used (I think 2000, maybe earlier, certainly not more recent) 
didn't read xml. OpenOffice doesn't support directly reading xml files - 
it expects you to write an XSLT stylesheet to convert it, and the last 
time I did that was over twelve years ago ... I'm not going to try to 
start again.
The template may just extract the bits that are wanted from within the 
CxF document.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
